Question

A polar bear can survive in Polar Regions because thick fur and padded feet
A) True
B) False

Answer 1

A polar bear has a thick fur all over the body except the tip of the nose. This helps them to escape from the cold even though they are in the water. They also have padded feet which help them to run or climb on the ice.

Complete answer:
Polar bear is a large bear that lives in the arctic regions. They are also known as the northern bear or white bear. Polar bears are mainly classified as marine mammals. The reason for that is they spend most of their lives on the sea ice of the Arctic ocean depending on the ocean for their food and shelter. Polar bears are the only bear species that are considered marine mammals. They have black colored skin under their white fur. Polar bear fur is made up of a layer of dense underfur and also an outer layer of translucent guard hairs. The fur in their body keeps them warm. They are strong and they can swim very efficiently. They are very similar to normal bears and have slimmer necks and longer legs and fur. They are mainly carnivorous. Their main food is seals and fishes. Polar bears live alone. Female lair by digging into deep snow drifts, which provide them with protection and insulation from the arctic elements. They give birth in winter, generally, to twins. Young cubs live with their mother for about 28 months. Polar bears have wide front feet with slightly webbed toes that help them to swim. They row with their front feet and steer with their hind feet. These paw pads have a rough surface and it helps to prevent polar bears from slipping upon the ice.
So the statement polar bear can survive in Polar Regions because of the thick fur and passed feet is true.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘A’.

Note: Polar bears have white fur and black skin. Therefore they can absorb sunlight very easily and efficiently into their body. And with the help of their black skin, they stay warm on the coldest days.
